Extractions: by Ai Thuy Lu Mozambique and South Africa has been in a struggle to gain freedom. Through these struggles, leaders have emerged. These personalities have helped shape each countrys national identity. Samora Machel and Nelson Mandela both were the first ones to become president of their countries after battling apartheid and repression. Mozambique had been a Portugal colony for over five centuries. In 1962 Samora Machel jointed the Front for the Liberation of Mozambique (FRELIMO), to fight for the liberalization of Mozambique from Portugal. By 1970 he had become commander and chief of the FREMILO army. He led the revolutionary army that eventually weakened Portugal and forced the Portuguese to leave Mozambique. He became the first president of the free Mozambique and was loved by the people that he was affectionately call President Samora. South Africa has had a history of racial discrimination. In the 40s, Strategists from the National Party invented apartheid as a means to cement their control over the economic and social system. Nelson Mandela held many positions in the African National Congress speaking against the injustices of apartheid. He was then imprisoned for over 20 years. After his release, on May 10 1994 Mandela was elected as the first State President of South Africa. Mozambique had maintained good relations with countries that were willing to assist in its development. Its closest ties were with China, Soviet Union, Cuba and other communist state. In 1977 Mozambique entered a 20-year treaty with the Soviet Union receiving foreign aid. With the abundant investment and more positive factors the economy seem promising.

Extractions: Mozambique Mozambicans are putting their shattering past behind them and are rebuilding their country at a remarkable pace. And there's a fair number of things to see, including stunning beaches, World Heritage sites, funky colonial architecture and colourful local culture. A long, horrific civil war scarred the country and left a million land mines scattered about the countryside. Much of its wildlife was decimated, and cyclones have ravaged its coastline. Droughts and floods take turns rubbing salt in Mozambique's wounds. It has been estimated that more than one million land mines - laid by both sides during the war - remain unexploded in Mozambique. Some minefields have warning signs, but most are unmarked and often only get discovered when someone gets blown to bits. For this reason it is simply not safe to go wandering off into the bush anywhere without first seeking local advice - and even then your safety isn't guaranteed. Stay on roads and well-worn tracks where other people have obviously gone before. There are also a lot of guns in Mozambique, and a lot of desperately poor people. Armed robberies and drive-by theft at gunpoint in Maputo was once completely unknown, now they are not uncommon. Women are advised not to walk alone along any beach in Mozambique, and travel by convoy is recommended throughout the country, due to the risk of banditry.

Extractions: Swaziland The smallest country in the southern hemisphere is also one of the most easy going - laid-back Swazis are more likely to celebrate for fun than demonstrate for reform. A progressive and hands-on attitude towards wildlife preservation has endowed it with a striking bunch of national parks. Black and white rhino, elephant, and more recently, lion, have been reintroduced into the collection of national parks and game reserves. You can trek, horse ride, raft on wild rivers or cycle through many of the parks and get surprisingly close to a huge variety of wildlife. While one or two towns get a little rough around the edges after dark, the tension palpably lifts if you have crossed into Swaziland from South Africa. Some of the more important festivals turn the Ezulwini ('Heaven') Valley into a brilliant spectacle of dancing and singing a couple of times a year, as tribespeople decked out in flamboyant costumes reaffirm their belief in the monarchy and their culture. There may be only one museum in the country and little in the way of night-time diversions besides gambling in the casino, but the countryside's thriving and the life's wild.

South African Ecotourism Your customer is not suddenly going to be a shangaan; he s going impressions with regard to the participation of South africa s indigenous people in ecotourism http://www.planeta.com/ecotravel/africa/1196africa.html
Extractions: Mexican architect Hector Ceballos Lascurain, credited with coining the term "ecotourism" in 1983 and presently Special Advisor on Ecotourism to the World Conservation Union (IUCN) recently visited South Africa on an intensive familiarisation tour. In an "ecoreconnaissance" sponsored mainly by the Mpumalanga Parks Board, the Northern Training Trust and South African Airways, but also by other conservation bodies and private enterprise, he covered over 4,000 km in Mpumalanga, Northern Province and KwaZulu Natal a journey which he says "far exceeded expectations". He speaks to Chris van der Merwe. V d M: South Africa markets itself as a prime wildlife destination and now also as a cultural one... C L: It's not the Africa you see in the movies. It's a temperate country, yet you have fantastic game, not just the Big Five, but the Small Five Thousand, many representatives of which we saw in places like Kruger, Sabi Sabi and Hluhluwe Umfolozi. In terms of landscapes, you have a bewildering variety of attractions: from the Magaliesberg on the doorstep of Johannesburg to Mariepskop in Mpumalanga and Mont aux Sources in the Greater Drakensberg Park. You have huge canyons such as Blydepoort and rivers, such as the Olifants, the Tugela and the Gariep. You have extensive bushveld wildlife preserves such as Kruger and some of the most extensive coastal lakes systems in the world St Lucia Greater Wetlands Park. And you do have a great variety of interesting cultures. It's been a fantastic experience.

Extractions: South Africa Rich in natural beauty from the sub tropical east coast , to the arid Kalahari and the temperate Cape, the often -called " world in one country " has much to offer. While South Africa's political issues have been most prevalent throughout the world in the past few decades, its history, culture, ethnic diversity and its physical geography are among the most interesting in Africa. The country offers a broad spectrum of sights and cultural activities as well as some of the best game viewing in Southern Africa. From the Cape coast to the Drakensberg Mountains and Kruger National Park, South Africa is sure to have something to suit every traveler's interests.

Extractions: South Africa Introduction Back to Top South Africa, Republic of, republic and southernmost country of continental Africa, bordered on the north-west by Namibia; on the north by Botswana and Zimbabwe; on the north-east by Mozambique and Swaziland; on the east and south by the Indian Ocean; and on the west by the Atlantic Ocean. The independent country of Lesotho forms an enclave in the eastern part of the country. South Africa has an area of 1,224,691 sq km (472,731 sq mi). The administrative capital of South Africa is Pretoria, the legislative capital is Cape Town, and the judicial capital is Bloemfontein. South Africa Provinces Back to Top 9 provinces; Eastern Cape, Free State, Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, Mpumalanga, North-West, Northern Cape, Northern Province, Western Cape South Africa People Back to Top The largest cities in South Africa (1995 estimate) include Cape Town (2,727,000), the legislative capital; Durban (1,264,000), the countrys leading port; Johannesburg (2,172,000 ), the commercial capital and metropolis of the goldfields; Pretoria (1,314,000), the administrative capital; and Port Elizabeth (1,035,000), an industrial city and major port. Although it is not a city, Soweto, a township outside Johannesburg, is one of the largest communities in South Africa. The 1991 census counted 596,632 residents in Soweto, but estimates have placed the population at as many as 2 million. The original Khoikhoi and San peoples of South Africa scarcely exist as distinct groups inside the country today. Other African peoples entered the country several hundred and even thousands of years ago, and their descendants today constitute about three-fourths of South Africa's population. The African population is heterogeneous, composed mainly of four linguistic groups. The largest is the Nguni, including various Ndebele, Swazi, Xhosa, and Zulu peoples, who constitute more than half the African population of the country and form the majority in many eastern and coastal regions. The second largest is Sotho-Tswana, which includes numerous Sotho, Pedi, and Tswana peoples and forms a majority in many Highveld areas. The last two are the Tsonga, or Shangaan, concentrated in Northern and Mpumalanga provinces, and the Venda, concentrated in Northern province.

In addition to 11 official languages and several ethnic groups, the country even has 20,00 Konkani-speaking people A safari to see the Big Five - lion, rhino, buffalo, leopard and elephant - roaming free in their natural habitat is one of South Africa's greatest attractions. There are several such parks in that country, but Mala Mala is reputed to be the top safari in the world. It is an exciting experience in the midst of the dense African bush. Quite accidentally we caught sight of a wild bull - at least a bull-like animal - casually piercing one of its horns in the trunk of a high and apparently dried tree. Water gushed out from the trunk of the tree and the bull quenched its thirst in royal style. The sound of gushing water attracted a variety of thirsty animals and birds who flocked around the tree to have their share of water. Was it a miracle? My driver, a gentleman of Indian origin, told me that the name of the tree was Baobab. It is a most unusual deciduous tree of Africa. The interior of its trunk, which may develop up to 9 metres in diameter, and the lower branches are soft and spongy and can store large quantity of water. They are leafless for most of the year, to reduce water loss. It is a slow growing tree reaching up to 18 metres in height and lives for thousands of years.

Extractions: Officially REPUBLIC OF SOUTH AFRICA formerly UNION OF SOUTH AFRICA The southernmost country on the African continent. It has an area of 470,693 square miles (1,219,090 square kilometres). It measures almost 1,000 miles (1,600 kilometres) from north to south, as well as from east to west. South Africa is bordered by Namibia to the northwest, by Botswana and Zimbabwe to the north, and by Mozambique and Swaziland to the northeast and east. Lesotho, an independent constitutional monarchy, is entirely surrounded by South African territory in the eastern part of the republic. South Africa's coastlines border the Indian Ocean to the southeast and the Atlantic Ocean to the southwest. The capitals are Pretoria (executive), Cape Town (legislative), and Bloemfontein (judicial). South Africa is relatively isolated, distant even from major African cities such as Nairobi, Kenya (more than 1,500 miles away), and Lagos, Nigeria (more than 2,400 miles away); it is 5,100 miles from South America, 4,700 miles from Australia, and more than 6,000 miles from most of Europe, North America, and eastern Asia, where many of its major economic links lie. The four original provinces of South AfricaCape of Good Hope, Orange Free State, Transvaal, and Natalwere reorganized in 1994 into nine new provinces: Western Cape, Northern Cape, Eastern, North-West, Free State, Gauteng, Eastern Transvaal, Northern, and KwaZulu/Natal; Eastern Transvaal subsequently was renamed Mpumalanga. South Africa possesses two small subantarctic islands, Prince Edward and Marion, situated in the Indian Ocean about 1,200 miles southeast of Cape Town. The former South African possession of Walvis Bay, an enclave on the Atlantic coast some 400 miles north of the Orange River, was transferred to Namibia in 1994.
Extractions: South Africa is said to be the most beautiful country in the world. It at least is the most beautiful place in Africa, however, the dark cloud of Apartheid meant many people were unwilling to visit the country until the breakdown of the system when Nelson Mandela came into power in 1994. Although it is now integrated, social and economic differences are still rife amongst the ethnic groups. The most beautiful aspect of South Africa is the ever - changing and breathtaking scenery. There are historic Cape Dutch vineyards where you can take a tour and sample world famous wines. Along the coastline are fantastic beaches where surfing is probably the most popular pastime, track lions in the great velds (grasslands) of Kruger National Park or sample a taste of traditional African life in the Transkei , the homeland of Nelson Mandela where the sky is endless.
